College football鈥檚 winners and losers of transfer portal
3. Notre Dame
Notre Dame didn鈥檛 need to do much when it came to the transfer portal, but landing the top-rated quarterback was a luxury Marcus Freeman and his staff were able to take on. With up-and-down play at the position over the years, Wake Forest transfer gives the Fighting Irish the one thing the team has lacked over previous seasons. Along with the transfers of Virginia Tech wide receiver Kaleb Smith, Oklahoma State safety Thomas Harper and Ohio State linebacker Javontae Jean-Baptiste, Notre Dame鈥檚 slew of moves now makes them a legit championship contender in 2023.
